Import Tips
• Verify corrugated paperboard meets FDA 21 CFR 176.170 for food contact; include supplier certifications in documentation
• Label with accurate material composition to avoid reclassification; common pitfall is misstating as non-corrugated
• Obtain prior notice via FDA's system for food-contact shipments to prevent CBP holds
